Signing on Keypad Controllers
If your segment uses keypad Controllers, use the following steps, in sequence, to
register each Controller in the system. Once this is done, the readers will appear
in the <New Segment Items> folder, viewable in the Readers tab Segment Tree.
Note The following sequence is timed. Be sure to have your segment sign on key ready
to enter at the appropriate time.
1 At a keypad Controller, press the following number sequence on the keypad:
5678# (Wi-Q) or 5678 (Omnilock and WAC). The green light will flash three
times.
2 Within five or six seconds, begin to enter the six-digit segment sign on key
number, followed by #. You will have about five seconds to enter each number.
The sequence will time out if more than five seconds elapses between num-
bers.
3 Once the key number is completed, the reader begins to alternately flash green
and red to signify that it is searching for Portal Gateways in range. If the se-
quence was completed successfully, three green flashes indicate the Controller
has accepted the sign on key.
4 If you see three red flashes, the Controller has not accepted the number or you
have exceeded the time limit. Begin again at step two, and continue until you
receive three green flashes.
Note Once a Controller has been signed on, all sign-on functionality is disabled unless it
is deep-reset.
Signing on Card Readers
If your segment uses card readers, you may want to register one of your cards
with a segment credential number. This card will be used to sign on card readers
to the system. You can register a separate card and hold it specifically for this
purpose, or register one that belongs to a user such as the Administrator’s card.
Once this is done, you will use the card to sign on each reader in the system.
